Access variables between commands with discord.py

Question

I have this (overly simplified) Discord bot

voting_enabled = False

@bot.command()
async def start():
    voting_enabled = True

@bot.command()
async def fin         


        

Answer 1

Except don't use globals because they stinky. Discord.py has another way to do this.

bot.voting_enabled = False

@bot.command()
async def start():
    bot.voting_enabled = True

@bot.command()
async def finish():
    bot.voting_enabled = False

@bot.command()
async def vote():
    if bot.voting_enabled:
        # Do something
    else:
        # Do something else
